FLACS-Fire

FLACS-Fire builds on the solid foundation of the existing explosion and dispersion CFD model and adds a new fire specific combustion model and advanced Discrete Transfer Method (DTM) to model thermal radiation. Over the last few years it has been extensively validated against experimental data and based on this work we have established clear and robust user guidelines to get accurate results in a very efficient workflow.

Key Benefits

Full 3D CFD and radiation ray-tracing model

Suitable for both high and low momentum flow jet-fires and pool fires

Extensively validated with focus on high momentum jet fires

Same efficient GUI, result visualisation tool and CAD import as in standard FLACS

Very modest learning curve

Existing dispersion scenarios can be quickly converted to jet-fires scenarios

Testimonials

China Classification Society is engaging in improving the safety of offshore oil and gas facilities. The CFD software FLACS is our preferred powerful tool in achieving this. CCS and GEXCON signed a Technology Cooperation Framework Agreement this year, and we will have a broader and deeper cooperation in the future. We believe the FLACS fire model would be an excellent addition to the FLACS package.
